Abstract

The study of microstrip patch antennae has made great progress in recent years. A simple microstrip patch antenna consists of metallic patch and ground between which is a dielectric medium called the substrate. Microstrip patch antennae are used for communication purposes especially in military applications. They are lighter in weight, low volume, low cost, low profile, smaller in dimension and ease of fabrication and conformity. In this paper a simple microstrip patch antennae designed in CST microwave studio at a resonant frequency of 3.45 GHz for WiFi applications. The gain of antenna is 6 dB and directivity is 7.5 dB.
